Wherever I May Roam Lyrics

[Instrumental Intro]

[Verse 1]
(And the road becomes my bride)
And the road becomes my bride
I have stripped of all but pride
So in her I do confide
And she keeps me satisfied
Gives me all I need
And the dust in throat I crave
Only knowledge will I save
To the game you stay a slave
Rover, wanderer
Nomad, vagabond
Call me what you will yeah

[Chorus]
Oh, but I'll take my time anywhere
Free to speak my mind anywhere
And I'll redefine anywhere
Anywhere I roam
Where I lay my head is home, yeah

[Verse 2]
(And the Earth becomes my throne)
And the Earth becomes my throne
I adapt to the unknown
Under wandering stars I have grown
By myself but not alone
I ask no one!
And my ties are severed clean
Less I have the more I gain
Off the beaten path I reign
Rover, wanderer
Nomad, vagabond
Call me what you will
Yeah you will!



[Chorus]
But I'll take my time anywhere
I'm free to speak my mind anywhere
And I never mind anywhere
Anywhere I roam
Where I lay my head is home, yeah
That's right

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus]
But I'll take my time anywhere
I'm free to speak my mind anywhere
And I'll take my time anywhere
Anywhere I roam
Where I lay my head is home, that's right
Right here, right now

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus]
But I'll take my time anywhere
I'm free to speak my mind anywhere
And I'll redefine anywhere
Anywhere I roam
Where I lay my head is home
Carved upon my stone
My body lies, but still, I roam yeah yeah



[Outro]
Wherever I may roam
Wherever I may roam, roam
Wherever I may roam
Wherever I may roam, yeah
Wherever I may wander, wander, wander!
Wherever I may roam, yeah yeah
Wherever I may roam, yeah yeah
Wherever I may roam
Wherever I may roam
Wherever I may roam
Wherever I may roam

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
